Local Citation Network. Wölfle, T. 2019.
Local Citation Network [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
This web app aims to help scientists with their literature review using metadata from OpenAlex (OA), Semantic Scholar (S2), OpenCitations (OC) and Crossref (CR). Academic papers cite one another, thus creating a citation network (= graph). Each node (= vertex) represents an article and each edge (= link / arrow) represents a reference (outgoing) / citation (incoming). Citation networks are a topic of bibliometrics, for which other great software exists as well. This web app visualizes subsets of the global citation network that I call 'local citation networks', defined by the references of a given set of Seed Articles. In addition, the most cited references missing in the set of Seed Articles are suggested for further review as 'Top Cited'. Other missing articles citing the highest number of Seed Articles are 'Top Citing'.
